directed by: Henry King, year: 1943
actors: Jennifer Jones, William Eythe, Charles Bickford, Vincent Price

Jennifer Jones stars as Bernadette Soubirous, a poor French girl whose 1858 Lourdes visions challenge village superstition and the local church. The film follows her simple life, the growing scrutiny of clergy, and the miracles that draw pilgrims, as her steadfast faith and humility shape the path to canonization. Henry King’s direction renders a contemplative, devotional drama about belief, doubt, and grace.
